Rodriguez-Merchan EC. Ankle arthrodesis and total ankle replacement in patients with congenital bleeding disorders suffering from severe ankle arthropathy. Expert Rev Hematol 2024; 17:1-8.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In patients with congenital bleeding disorders suffering from severe ankle arthropathy, when conservative treatment and joint-preserving surgical techniques fail, there are two possible non-joint-preserving options: ankle arthrodesis (AA) and total ankle replacement (TAR). AREAS COVERED The scope and aim of this article was to analyze the current role of AA and TAR in patients with congenital bleeding disorders suffering from severe ankle arthropathy. EXPERT OPINION In patients with congenital bleeding disorders, both TAR and AA provide good results, mainly in terms of pain relief, although they are not exempt from complications (between 0% and 33% in TAR and between 5% and 23.5% in AA). The current controversy about which of the two surgical techniques, TAR or AA, gives better results, the current literature is not able to resolve it in patients with congenital bleeding disorders. While this question is being answered, my opinion regarding patients with congenital bleeding disorders is that the age of the patient must be taken into account. Given known prosthetic survival rates, the older the patient, the more we might be inclined to indicate TAR. Conversely, AA may be more appropriate for relatively young patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In patients with haemophilia, repeated bleeding in large joints leads to chronic haemophilic arthropathy, a rare disease that can be managed surgically with ankle arthrodesis or with total ankle replacement (TAR). TAR has been reported to provide good surgical results in the medium/long-term and allow preservation of joint mobility but the medical therapeutic management of the patients has not been described. AIM To describe the medical therapeutic management of TAR. METHODS All patients with haemophilia A/B, with haemophilic ankle arthropathy, and who underwent TAR between April 2006 and October 2019 were retrospectively included. Factor consumption, perioperative and early complications, volume of blood lost, and orthopaedic data were collected. RESULTS A total of 25 patients underwent 29 TAR (mean age was 44.7 years [range: 26-65]). In the 17 patients with HA without history of anti-FVIII inhibitor, the mean ± SD consumption the day of surgery was 116 ± 16 UI/kg when clotting factors were administered by continuous infusion, 106 ± 13 UI/kg when SHL factors were administered by bolus infusion, and 75 ± 22 UI/kg when EHL factors were administered by bolus infusion. During hospitalisation, the mean factor cost was €38,073 (83.7% of the total cost of surgery). Mean blood loss was significantly lower in patients treated with tranexamic acid (164 mL, range: 40-300) than in those not (300 mL, range: 70-800; p = .01). Six patients had haematoma. The 10-year survival free of any prosthesis removal/arthrodesis was estimated to be 92.2% (95% CI [83; 100]). CONCLUSION The medical therapeutic management of TAR is complex, carried out by a multidisciplinary team but effective in avoiding the occurrence of complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited literature comparing the publications on ankle arthrodesis (AA) and total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) in the setting of hemophilic arthropathy. Our objective is to systematically review the existing literature and to assess ankle arthroplasty as an alternative to ankle arthrodesis in this patient population. METHODS This systematic review was conducted and presented according to the PRISMA statement standards. A search was conducted on March 7-10, 2023, using MEDLINE (via PubMed), Embase, Scopus, ClinicalTrials.gov, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Studies. This search was restricted to full-text human studies published in English, and articles were screened by 2 masked reviewers. Systematic reviews, case reports with less than 3 subjects, letters to the editor, and conference abstracts were excluded. Two independent reviewers rated study quality using the MINORS tool. RESULTS Twenty-one of 1226 studies were included in this review. Thirteen articles reviewed the outcomes associated with AA in hemophilic arthropathy whereas 10 reviewed the outcomes associated with TAA. Two of our studies were comparative and reviewed the outcomes of both AA and TAA. Additionally, 3 included studies were prospective. Studies showed that the degree of improvement in American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society hindfoot-ankle score, visual analog scale pain scores, and the mental and physical component summary scores of the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey were similar for both surgeries. Complication rates were also similar between the 2 surgeries. Additionally, studies showed a significant improvement in ROM after TAA. CONCLUSION Although the level of evidence in this review varies and results should be interpreted with caution, the current literature suggests similar clinical outcomes and complication rates between TAA and AA in this patient population.

Abstract
Tranexamic acid (TXA) has become a commonly used perioperative intervention in total joint arthroplasty, shoulder and knee arthroscopy, and spinal procedures in order to minimize blood loss, hematoma formation, hemarthrosis, and wound healing complications. There is a potential role for TXA use in foot and ankle procedures, with limited studies suggesting a potential benefit in minimizing postoperative wound complications and blood loss without an increased risk of thromboembolic events. In light of the profound clinical and financial impact of TXA use in other orthopaedic subspecialties and the early successes in foot and ankle surgery, we aim to provide more information about TXA and its use in foot and ankle surgery. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to perform a comprehensive literature review on the topic of TXA use in foot and ankle procedures in order to describe the pertinent available literature on the use of TXA in orthopaedic surgery and its implications specifically in foot and ankle surgery. It is our aim to identify potential benefits and shortcomings in the available evidence on TXA use for foot and ankle surgery in hopes to (1) best inform foot and ankle surgeons where beneficial and safe and (2) inspire further research on this topic as it relates to clinical management for foot and ankle patients.Levels of Evidence: Level IV.

Clinical and patient reported outcome in total ankle replacement compared to ankle fusion in end-stage haemophilic arthropathy. Haemophilia 2021; 27:e739-e746.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ankle arthropathy is a frequent complication of haemophilia, reducing the patients' quality of life. Despite intensive conservative therapy, end-stage arthropathy requires surgical treatment, either by ankle fusion (AF) or total ankle replacement (TAR). METHODS Eleven consecutive AFs were performed in nine patients and 11 TARs were implemented in 10 patients. Outcomes were assessed clinically by AOFAS score and radiologically by the Pettersson and Gilbert scores. RESULTS The mean age of the patients in these groups were 35.7 years and 49.4 years, respectively. Of the 11 ankles that underwent fusion, 10 showed bony consolidation not later than 12 weeks after surgery, whereas one still showed non-union after 6 months. VAS pain scores decreased significantly in both groups. Mean AOFAS scores also improved significantly, from 28.1 before to 80.3 after AF and from 21.5 before to 68.0 after ankle replacement. No perioperative complications were observed in either group. Late deep infection was observed in two patients that underwent TAR, which required removal of the implant. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that both AF and TAR result in significantly reduced pain in patients with haemophilia with end-stage haemophilic arthropathy. While TAR is associated with a higher risk of deep infection and minimal persistent pain, it preserves the pre-operative range of motion. AF on the other hand is associated with the risk of non-union and a longer post-operative recovery period but results in greater pain reduction.

Abstract
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder characterized by the deficiency of a coagulation factors. The hemarthrosis is the most common and earliest manifestation. Repeated hemarthrosis over time causes the development of hemophilic arthropathy. Among most involved joints, the ankle is the one where much uncertainty remains about the best course of action in managing the various degrees of hemophilia manifestations. These manifestations range from simple acute swelling and pain to devastating deformity. The purpose of our review is to draw a comprehensive picture of ankle hemophilic arthropathy epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical symptoms and signs, radiological features and all the treatments available at present days. This review confirms that the first line of treatment considered should be the replacement therapy of the coagulation deficient factors that, preventing hemarthrosis, stops the development and progression of ankle's joint damage. The treatments proposed in literature for advanced stage of arthropathy are many and vary according to the severity of the case. They range from conservative ones such as physiotherapy, orthosis, intra-articular injections, laser therapy, external beam radiation therapy, radio-synovectomy and oral drug to invasive surgical treatment such as ankle arthrodesis and total ankle replacement. Whatever is the chosen treatment, according to the arthropathy severity we believe that it must be carried out in reference centers for foot and ankle surgery assisted by expert hematologists.

Abstract
Introduction
Severe ankle hemophilic arthropathy can be a calamitous sign of severe hemophilia with important inferences for activities of daily living. Aims
To summarize the contemporary, accessible information on Total Ankle Replacement (TAR) for ankle hemophilic arthropathy. Methods
A search of Cochrane Library and PubMed (MEDLINE) regarding the role of TAR in ankle hemophilic arthropathy. Results
The insufficient information regarding the results of TAR for hemophilic arthropathy is confined to scanty case series and case reports. An evaluation of the accessible literature reveals encouraging but inconstant outcomes. The reported rate of adverse events is 33%. The reported anticipated survival of TAR is 94% at 5 years, 85% at 10 years and 70% at 15 years. Conclusion
Whereas people with advanced hemophilic arthropathy of the ankle are prone to ameliorate pain and range of motion following TAR, there is deficient knowledge to regularly recommend its use. Adverse events and infection percentages are disturbing. Moreover, the lack of survival analysis knowledge makes it difficult to assess the benefit to people with hemophilia. TAR is a demanding surgical procedure and its survival is not comparable to that after hip or knee replacement.

Abstract
Haemophilia is the most common X-linked bleeding disorder, affecting over 1 million individuals throughout the world. Patients are subclassified into mild, moderate and severe disease based on per cent factor activity level. Nearly, all patients with haemophilia develop haemophilic arthropathy (HA) by age 30 and HA is known to have a negative impact on physical health subscores in Haem-A-QOL, a validated quality of life scoring system for patients with haemophilia. Unfortunately, many patients progress to end-stage HA of the ankle, which is characterized by pain, contractures, decreased range of motion and muscle atrophy. Ankle arthrodesis (AAD) has been the standard of care in the definitive surgical management of end-stage HA of the ankle. While AAD is a safe surgical procedure known to improve HA-related pain, it decreases functional mobility and has been associated with secondary hindfoot arthritis as well as subtalar degeneration. In recent years, total ankle replacement (TAR) has emerged as an alternative surgical procedure that strives to improve functional mobility, pain and quality of life in end-stage HA of the ankle. However, the safety, durability, and efficacy of this procedure in these patients are unknown. In this review, we analyse the clinical studies investigating TAR in patients with end-stage HA of the ankle. We also discuss important considerations in the perioperative management of patients with haemophilia and compare the risks and benefits of AAD and TAR for patients with end-stage HA of the ankle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) can result in excellent outcomes in patients with end-stage arthritis, but most patients with end-stage hemophilic ankle arthropathy (ESHAA) still undergo ankle arthrodesis (AA). The purpose of this study was to analyze clinical and radiological results of TAA and AA for ESHAA. METHODS A total of 29 cases (16 TAAs and 13 AAs) of painful ESHAA were included. For clinical outcome evaluation, visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, Foot Function Index (FFI), and range of motion (ROM) were analyzed. Postoperative clinical and radiological complications were also analyzed. The mean duration of follow-up was 6.8 ± 3.0 years. The mean age was 44.1 ± 9.9 years. RESULTS The VAS for pain was significantly improved from 5.5 ± 2.3 to 0.9 ± 1.2 (P < .001). The FFI scale was significantly improved from 61.6% ± 15.5% to 16.6% ± 15.4% (P < .001). In FFI disability and activity subscales, the TAA group exhibited meaningful outcomes relative to those of the AA group (P = .012 and .036, respectively). The total ROM in the TAA group changed from 30.8 ± 12.6 degrees to 37.3 ± 12.8 degrees at final follow-up (P = .090). Three cases of osteolysis and 1 case of heterotopic ossification were noted in the TAA group. No cases of nonunion were noted in the AA group. Progressive arthrosis of adjacent joints after AA was observed in 1 case. CONCLUSION Both TAA and AA in ESHAA exhibited significant improvement in pain based on VAS and FFI scales. Compared to AA, TAA resulted in superior outcomes in FFI disability and activity subscales, suggesting that TAA may be considered as a surgical option alongside AA for ESHAA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
Total ankle arthroplasty is a treatment option for end-stage osteoarthritis of the ankle, as is ankle arthrodesis. Many variables, including patient characteristics, are thought to influence clinical outcome and survival. As with any surgery, but especially with total ankle replacement (TAR), patient selection is considered critical for good (long-term) outcome. In this review, we summarize the available scientific evidence regarding patient characteristics and its influence on the results of TAR.
